Rear brake hose
 
Is there a difference in the rear brake hoses between the naked and faired sv.I need to change the rear and have found a place that does braided rear hoses cheap but it says not for the S model?-is it the length thats different-i need a shorter hoses anyway due to the new exhaust pipework ,or is there something else different?
cheers

the swing arms are slightly longer, but not enough to make a differance to the lines, i think

I'm with Hovis here. I thought the swingarms were marginally different in length.

Only on the 1000cc bikes, where the 'N' is 5/8" longer.

The difference in wheelbase quoted for the faired and naked 650 models is due to the different gearing as standard, not suspension differences.

How would gearing change the wheelbase?

(though the different height of the forks in the yokes I could understand..)

Are we talking specifically about pointies? Because on the curvy,:

The naked is the longer of the two.

Because the difference in rear sprocket size and chain length will put the rear axle in a slightly different position. Caveat: IKBA!
